Easy Biscuits

Ingredients:

2 cups flour
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup salad oil
2/3 cup milk

Directions:
Heat oven to 450 degrees. Measure dry ingredients into a bowl and mix well. Measure the oil and milk, mix together. Make a well in the dry ingredients. Pour the wet in all at once. Stir until the mixture forms a ball.

Now you have some options. You can drop the dough in large spoonfuls onto a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes. Or, you can put the dough onto a no-stick surface and kneed in a little flour, then roll the biscuits, and cut with a cup or a knife.

Bake 10-12 minutes. Mmm.
